    “I wanted this kit to serve as a reminder that we aren't, never have been, and won't ever truly be alone because our collective experience IS our connection.”

    When I'm not on the bike, I'm an architect, graphic designer, and salsa dancer. At the intersection of all my work is community, and I approach all projects with an eye towards details that tell stories.

    Past, Present, and Future Black History Cycling Kits

    PAST, PRESENT & FUTURE

    For each of us these words have resonance. In some way or another, they represent moments and experiences, lineage and legacy, hopes and fears. Our stories are different and diverse, but together they create a tapestry, we call humanity.

    We chose the two beneficiaries of the 2022 Black History Month campaign in collaboration with Major Taylor Iron Riders’ leadership. All of us are excited about how well these recipient organizations embody our values. The Thurgood Marshall College Fund is a reflection of Pactimo’s view that education is a powerful vehicle for remedying inequity. The MTIR Development Team is an expression of MTIR’s passion to develop cyclists of color as champions and role models for a more inclusive cycling community.
